Blueberry-Filled Sour Cream Pound Cake

in #food6 years ago

Good day everyone. I hope you’re all doing great. Today the weather here is getting hot like 89 degrees and with the weather like this it is not really good to be outside where the hot sun just gets into your skin and causing you to get sunburn. I don’t know about you but I don’t like sunburn at all and I’m certainly not fond of it. So, I stay inside where it is cooler.

Well, yesterday afternoon I made this awesome cake inspired by blueberries. I’ve tasted blueberry muffins many times before, but I haven’t created one in a Bundt pan form before. So, I thought I would try it and see how it will do or turn out for me. And of course this cake is originally from Nordic Ware, a courtesy from a lady named Lisa Speer of Palm Beach, Florida. There are quite a few ingredients listed in this recipe but making it wasn’t that difficult or challenging to do. It was actually effortless and quite simple as well as easy to create. And my review for this cake from scale of 1 to 5, I would say that this cake is at 5. Yes, I gave it a five because it was scrumptiously delicious in my taste bud. And also because I do love to eat blueberries. I could eat that all day and besides they are good for you too, health-wise. And that is a very good thing, is it not?

Well, If you haven’t tried this kind before, I would strongly recommend that you do try to make it because it is that good. Yummy. So, here is how to make it.
